JFSL, Allianz Sign Deal for 50:50 Reinsurance Partnership

Jio Financial Services Limited (JFSL) and Allianz Group (Allianz), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Allianz Europe B.V., today entered into a binding agreement to form a 50:50 domestic reinsurance joint venture to serve the dynamic and high-growth insurance market in India. 

JFSL’s vision is to empower every Indian by digitally delivering simple, secure, seamless and smart financial solutions that address four core needs: to borrow, invest, transact and protect.

Isha M. Ambani, Non-executive Director, Jio Financial Services Limited, says: "India is witnessing a transformative surge in insurance demand, driven by rising prosperity, growing financial awareness, and rapid digital adoption. This partnership, combining Allianz’s global reinsurance expertise with JFSL’s deep understanding of the Indian market and strong digital infrastructure, aims to deliver innovative and customized reinsurance solutions to insurers. Aligned with the national goal of ‘Insurance for All by 2047’, we are committed to building a stronger and more inclusive insurance ecosystem that ensures broader access to protection for every Indian. We are excited to shape this transformative journey together.”

Allianz is deeply invested in India’s long-term growth. The firm’s vision is to enhance financial resilience and bring greater security and peace of mind to individuals, communities, and businesses across the country. India is already the world’s fourth largest economy with strong economic growth, fueled by favorable demographics. The country’s expanding middle class and increasing demand for insurance solutions present a compelling opportunity for long-term value creation. 

Oliver Bäte, Chief Executive Officer, Allianz SE, says: “We are proud to partner with Jio Financial Services to support the democratization of access to world-class financial services for the people of India, with the opportunity to serve a growing number of consumers who are seeking the right protection for themselves, their families, and their businesses. Allianz and Jio Financial Services are two trusted brands distinguished for customer excellence, and we are very much looking forward to actively contributing to and participating in this exciting journey of change.“
